Their defense is soft as baby shit. Hughes, Nemec and Casey don't use their bodies either to hit or get in shooting lanes... Hughes gives the puck away like candy to trick-or-treaters... Hamilton is Hamilton, we've experienced that ride.... Pesce is like a dollar store Tanev IMO....I said it last year: the issues that led to the Devils' goaltending stats last year were extremely similar to what the Flames were doing in 2022-23. Break but don't bend defence.
Haven't really seen them this season yet, but I'm not overly shocked by what is happening.
When Siegenthaler and Kovacevic lead your defense in ESTOI, you done f***ed up somewhere.
